not just about winning elections and hitting the 65% issues in the polls. leadership is about going to the people you represent and telling them the truth, whether it's a convenient truth or not, and explaining to them these are our options and this is the one i think is the best one moving forward for our country and for you and ultimately in a republic people decide whether tle want to support that or not and then the country faces the consequences of the decision made or not made. do you get frustrated sometimes? more frustrating in a country where you wouldn't debate the issues and have a chance to go to people and explain what you stand for or worry about speaking your mind because you could be put in jail by the governing party. i'm grateful i live in a republic and what i believe is still the greatest country in the history of the world. >> greta: senator, nice to see you. >> thank you. now this, this is very he bizarre, a new mystery surrounding the chandra levy case, almost 12 years after the murder of the washington intern, information so big, it
